A new report by Anil Rao, Analyst, and Glen Ragoonanan [pictured], Senior Analyst, Analysys Mason forecasts that "Efforts to launch new services and win more subscribers in order to monetise mobile and fixed broadband networks will drive SDP spending to grow at a CAGR of 9.5% over the next five years .. Over the forecast period, CSPs will begin investing in SDP systems to explore and enable new digital service opportunities and business models, as they adapt to changes in the telecoms value chain. Customer experience management (CEM), analytics, and content and over-the-top (OTT) partnering to deliver bundled or integrated, competitive, 'anywhere' cloud services, as well as machine-to-machine (M2M) and digital home services (such as home security and m-health) will not have a significant impact until 2016 onwards".

According to Infonetics Research (March 2013), the SDP market forecast to reach $5.9B in 2017, from $3.6B in 2012 [see "[Infonetics]: $3.6B SDP Market Led by Oracle and Huawei" - here].
